Chapter 3
"Ugg" what is that sound? I hear a faint beeping sound and it's just so annoying! Why can't it shut up so I can resume sleeping, huh? I'm just so tired… ah, but the beeping is still there. "Uggh" I groan again and I try to ignore it.
"Sam? Sam, are you awake? Sam!" Carly's voice is even more annoying that the strange beeping sound, and it a lot more difficult to ignore. "Come on Sam, I know you're awake so stop faking!" ok, is it just me or does she sound angry?
I open my eyes and find myself in a bright room. It all white and it smells a lot like disinfectant there's a window at the right side off the bed I'm lying on, and a door I assume is the bathroom at the left and, right beside it, is a really big couch in which Freddie is sitting with a little pink bundle in his arms.
As soon as my eyes reach him, they can't stop looking at him; and not just him but the little baby I'm sure is inside the blanket. My baby.
"Sam!" I snap my head back at Carly as she yells my name and now I'm sure I didn't imagine Carly's anger. Why is she angry?
I just stare at her waiting for the words she obviously wants to say and, as I do, her expression gets even more and more annoyed. Ok, what am I missing here?
"How could you not tell me you were pregnant?" And the words are out. Is that really the trouble? I open my mouth to tell her I didn't know it myself but she keeps talking. "I'm your best friend Sam! I would've supported you! And how could you not tell Freddie? Didn't you think he had the right to know? I mean, this are his babies aren't they?" I wait to make sure she's done speaking and then I open my mouth, again.
"Don't even say that Carly, OF COURSE this are his babies, he's the only one I've ever been with" she opens her mouth to interrupt me but I hold up my hand so she won't. "You ask me why I didn't tell you I was pregnant, well truth is, I didn't know it myself! This is imposible in so many ways! First of all, when Freddie and I did it, we used protection and I even took a pill the next day! And this whole time I kept having my period, I didn't gain a pound and I never started showing! Believe me, I REALLY didn't know!"
I look at her and then at Freddie and, when I see they believe me, I'm able to breath again.
"This is so weird isn't it" Freddie gets up from the couch and comes to sit in my bed right next to me; and I can do nothing but stare at the tiny baby he's got in his arms. She's just so tiny! Unbelievably so; but I can see her tiny little hand holding onto Freddie's finger so tightly that it's starting to turn white from the lack of blood flow (Freddie's finger, not the baby's hand). Seems like someone's got her momma's strength (Wow! Momma? I guess my nickname fits me better now). Suddenly I find myself searching her face to see what else she got from me; her head is covered with thick brown hair so that's Freddie. Her eyes are closed so I can't tell but I wonder what color they'll be (but I know that, even If they were open, I wouldn't be able to tell the color of her eyes because all babies' eyes are a very dark blue when they're born and it takes a few weeks before the color defines). Her nose looks a lot like mine did when I was little, so I guess she got that from me; and her lips seem to be a mix of Freddie's and mine.
I keep looking at her and I feel tears leaving my eyes because, in my whole life, I had never done something right, and yet now I'd made her and she was so PERFECT!
"Here, why don't you hold her?" I look up at Freddie and I see his eyes are shining with unshed tears. I get lost in his eyes, they're just so beautiful! But then I feel something warm against my arm and I look down and see Freddie trying to give the baby to me.
I hold her and it feels so natural, so right, it's like my arms were shaped just to fit her perfectly*.
"Hey baby… mmm… Freddie what am I supposed to tell her?"
"What do you mean?"
"I don't have the slightest idea of what to do, what to tell her… what did you tell her when you held her the first time?"
"Well, the first time I held her was right after she was born and you fainted, the woman had to take care of you so she just cut the cord and gave her to me. I was far too shocked for talking then, all I could do was hold her and look at what the paramedics were doing to you and…" Freddie stops talking and he looks at Carly before looking down at our daughter's face. I look at Carly too and her face looks so sad and worried, and Freddie's is pretty much the same as he strokes the baby's head. Ok, now I'm worried.
"And?" just then do I remember, didn't I have two babies? The memory of the past hours get to me like a flashback. I can see it all, almost feel it all. I remember how the pain got worse as the day went by; remember I was sleeping in Carly's couch when the pain reached it's peak; remember Freddie taking my blood-stained jeans and, most importantly, I remember giving birth to a baby. A baby boy.
So, where is he now?

Ok k, I fell asleep in the bus on my way home from school today and this came up! Yeah, I know I have weird dreams!
This is the stuff I tried to imply but I'm absolutely sure I failed at doing, so I write it here just so you know:
- Carly was mad cause she thought Sam had been keeping secrets from her, but as soon as she explained herself, Carly absolutely believed her. Sam wouldn't lie with something like that, I think.
- Freddie wasn't mad at Sam, but he is really confused; also he never doubted the kids were his, and nor did Carly actually, that was just something she said so Sam would tell the truth.
Just so you know:
- I started writing this as Freddie's POV, but I found out I suck at it (like, terribly suck at it) so I just wrote this as Sam's POV instead and I think it's a lot better. I will, however, try to write Freddie's POV later on the story; if you got any suggestions form me please share =)
- They checked both babies and they found out the girl was perfectly healthy so they gave her to Freddie while Sam was unconscious.
What is wrong with the baby boy?
What will Marissa, Pam and Spencer think about this whole thing?
What about Melanie, Gibby and all the other kids from school?
What about iCarly?
What will Sam and Freddie do?
Why am I writing so many questions? Oh right, to keep you interested. Did it work?
Also, I gotta say that I wrote this really fast and in some weird program with no spell-check so sorry if anything's mistakenly written.
Anyways, please tell me what you think about this chap and the whole story =)

*That was a little alike to what Bella said when she held Reneesme for the first time, not that I'm comparing them, but still I liked that part :)
